Nonlinear static "pushover" analysis of multi-storey reinforced concrete building
Contemporary structural design implies the nonlinear behaviour of ductile structural elements for the design of seismic actions, which implies the application of nonlinear analysis. Pushover analysis evaluates the seismic performance of the structure and combines the behavior of bearing and non-bearing elements thus forming a description of the overall

Nonlinear Response‐History Analyses of Masonry and Mixed Structures With HybriDFEM
ABSTRACT The hybrid discrete‐finite element (HybriDFEM) method, previously developed to perform static and modal analysis in discrete and coupled discrete‐finite element models, is extended to nonlinear response‐history analyses. The equations of motion for the HybriDFEM model are solved through various numerical time‐integration schemes, both explicit

Behavior of Long‐Slotted Perforated Steel Plate Fuses in Timber Brace End Connections
ABSTRACT Steel perforated plate fuses have emerged as a promising solution for mass timber seismic force‐resisting systems, offering tunable energy dissipation mechanisms, such as flexural and shear yielding, through geometric adjustments. This study examines the cyclic performance of perforated steel plate fuses employed in timber braced frames, with ...

ABSTRACT Reinforced concrete pier walls designed before the 1970s often incorporate lap splice in potential plastic‐hinge regions. Previous experimental tests indicate that most of pier walls experienced post‐yield lap splice failure, necessitating a modeling approach that captures not only lap splice strength but also deformation capacity.

Capacity degradation and crack pattern development in a multi-storey unreinforced masonry building
A seismic assessment of a typical unreinforced masonry residential building without tie beams is presented in the paper. The numerical analysis was conducted according to the finite-element method using experimental data on the quality of the masonry ...

Behaviour Factor of Ductile Code-Designed Reinforced Concrete Frames
The current generation of seismic design codes is based on a linear elastic force-based approach that includes the nonlinear response of the structure implicitly through a response modification factor (named reduction factor R in American codes or ...

Covariance Structure Modeling of Engineering Demand Parameters in Cloud‐Based Seismic Analysis
ABSTRACT Probabilistic seismic demand modeling aims to estimate structural demand as a function of ground motion intensity—a critical stage in seismic risk assessment. Although many models exist to describe the structural demand, few consider the covariance among engineering demand parameters, potentially overlooking a key factor in improving the ...
